One of the Best Bikes Suzuki ever made. Comfortable and carbureted like a Bike should be.
These older muscle bikes are for legends. love them. street cred turns to legendary status immediately ;)
The late 90's Bandit's are *bad ass*. They sound awesome and are nothing but power from 2000 to about 8500rpm. He's right too, they'll easily cruise 100mph all day long. Maybe 110. I've seen some for sale with over 50k miles. With a little tune up work you can get 130 hp or more out of them. Like mine.
One of the all time great bikes.
I have 1998 1200N Great kick ass bike💪 early i've got 600N,but 1200N is awesome. 😉
I have a 1200 k6 since new, 150 k miles on it and it still work like crazy. I love it !
I have one of these in a 97' model. Found a well looked after example with 40,000 miles. The thing is like new. Incredible bike. Classic.
Love mine. Wanted one in high school. Finally got it last year. Dale walker exhaust. Stage 3 pods. Mikuni GSXR carbs. Absolutely rips. Oh mine is the red.
I just bought a Suzuki Bandit 600 (little sister) 1998 for 1300€. Absolutely fantastic; like new. Totally original (exhaust pipe, turn signal, driving mirrors.....).
Loved your vid compilation. Not only a simple walkaround but showing the Bandit out on the road. Fantastic discription. Got a 98 too and love it. Devon UK.
I have one just like in this vid with yoshi pipe, proper jetting, racetech forks and fox rear shock. This bike can do it all. Love it!
Stage 2 jets, full exhaust and gsxr cams will give you 130 hp and nearly 90 lbs of tourque
good recipe 😁😋
I just had my gsf 1200 n on a testbench this weekend, at a bikemeet in northern jutland.
It is build with 98 hp and about 235 km/h
All I have done to it is changing the muffler to a more open model 🤗
And the readings from the test is 126 hp
290km/h at the top 😄
The guy who tested it was an allover big smile on his face, when he told me it could ve even stronger with the right ajustment 😄😄
I am never going to pull that kind of speed, since only a small stone on the road can make a heck of a mess 😄
Ken you seem to always find the Gems!!!!I’ve ridden one of these when my friend owned one. It was a breath of fresh air compared to my GSXR. The seating position and bar set up makes any long trip a breeze. The motor is a locomotive and just pulls and pulls.
I just bought a 2001 1200 Bandit S. One owner bought it from the dealer had the dealer put a full 2 brothers exhaust with a carbon fiber can K n N filters and a rejet. The owner traded it in on a car.21 years later. Car dealer threw it up on a thumb nail under cars and trucks on C/L.So no gear heads saw it. Had 2033 miles on it inside it's whole life. Man it's fast. As of today it has 2700 and change. I payed 3999. 4600 with tax. It's sliver. 0 gravity windshield.too. I love it I glad to be it's new owner.
Great video .. love your description on the bikes u have.
But the bandit is close to my heart. I have a 2000 gsf 1200 and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Just a brilliant bike." They would climb a tree for you "😁

Wow! What are the odds of finding another bandit enjoyer from Kerry? Up the kingdom!!
Aaanndd...Again. Kaplan America finds a sweetheart of a bike !! Had the naked version of this bike. Torquey and handled well on the street. Definitely a great all arounder... thank you
98bhp 72lbs of torque at 3,500 rpm standard from factory.
211 kg dry weight
140mph std.
I had a blue one 1997 unfaired.
Went like a missile.
Huge torque low down & loads of leg room.
A fab bike even by todays standards.
Value $3,200 for a fairly good one with 35,000km on clock.
I used to flip bikes as a side hustle, picked up an 04 bandit 1200, fixed the carb then fell in love…Swiss Army knife of bikes! Will never sell it.. my R1 is collecting dust now 😂
Love my '05 1200 Bandit S and your vids!
Walker Racing makes all sorts of nice Bandit farkles.
I always cringe when you ride w/o protection gear :-(
I have owned my ‘97 S1200 for 8 years now and would not dare to sell it! I was lucky enough to find a one owner bike that was well taken care of and like your client I have also babied mine. I do the same every season regardless of miles and do my own carb tuning. A little overkill but what the heck, take care of it and it will last forever! Glad you enjoyed this bike as I do mine!
Gorgeous bike and great review.
A real survivor first gen Bandit S that looks the best in my opinion, I also love naked Bandits with no fairing.
It has closer to 100-105hp but Tons of torque for sport-touring and everyday street riding which make a lot more sense than very high revving engine with weak low-mid range power.
This bike only needs a new owner/rider and nice exhaust.
I would get a Racefit Growler pipe for this one, it would look and sound absolutely insane.
Had one of these. Yes bullet proof and fast. Standard will hit 160 miles an hour. Plenty of torque.
no not 160....a good one will do 145
@@blueberry2846 it will do about 160 indicated on the speedometer but true ground speed is about 145. For what ever reason suzuki speedometers are off about 8-10%. I had and 01 model that would indicate 160 mph
I have one since new 1998 great motorcycle
I got a 2004 with a yoshi and Dyno jet kit. Fast af! Everytime I crack the throttle. I say holy shit!!!! It's a rocket! They will get this bike from me only when they pry it from my dead cold hands!!
Just bought mine yesterday and yes when you crack that throttle “it’s like holding on to dear life” sumbitch goes but Suzuki oil can’t be the top oil
Owned one of these as it was my first bike, i absolutely loved it. The previous owner cammed and built the top end. It was pushing around 130-135 HP. I learned how to drive motorcycles on that heavy thing. I always told my friends there is no other feeling like the powerband on that bike. It pulls like a freight train! To this day i can’t find another way to describe it. I miss it every day. Sadly the motor blew on me going 120+. Didn’t have the money to fix it and had to make ends meet. I will always want another one
I tell myself the same. You'll aways find a way to get another one. It's in our blood. I've got 2
I tell myself the same. You'll aways find a way to get another one. It's in our blood. I've got 2
I'm on my 6th bandit and only 1 of em blew up on me
find a donor bike, you have some good parts in yours to put on another bike, just get riding again.
That's the bike I've always wanted right there.... never even heard about it until now
I have a 2002 version. I had to do some work on it because the previous owner didn't prep it before he parked / stored it. It took some time and effort to get the rust out of the tank and I replaced some parts and cleaned / rebuilt the carbs... It runs good now...
These bikes are awesome for people that love the naked bike style. upright seating position… They are so comfortable. Beautiful machine.
I have just bought a 2006 abs model with 7735 miles from new. It's being dropped off from the super bike factory within the next few days and I can't wait to get on her and hit the open road. Came with hard case panniers and top box too so that's a bonus.

Such a sweet sounding bike.
These are great motorcycles.... no arguing that.
I have a 98 I am building now. That motor was the original stunt bike motor that could handle wheelies and redline all day and night. These are tough bikes and as time goes on they are getting overlooked. That motor from the GSXR1150 in a 750 frame use to be a hot swap back in day.
Have 94 GSXR 750w with a 2000 1200 bandit motor in it. It's my eBay Hillbilly Bandit.Built it for less than 1300. Need to rering the top end. POS petcock gas with corn diaphragm decided to let go after filling it up puting it away for the night. I just bought a 2001 1200 bandit s with 2033 miles this bike looks like just came out the showroom. 2 brothers full exhaust and carbon fiber can KnNs dealer rejet. From the OG owner. Fuck it's fast I was chasing an honda rc 51. Evey move he made i countered it. Was right on his ass. Then when there's were no cars around I pulled up told him he had a bad ass bike. Dropped a year. Made him chase me. We both got stuck together at a long stop light. He's says wholly shit that thing pretty fast. For a commuter bike I said.. I love my new low mile toy.
The old 7 11
@@fastbysal8797 Yup the 7/11
Yours videos are so passionate!
I owned a gsf 400 bandit for near 18 year, what a rocket! Congrat For your job, a realy enjoy it!!!
PD, as survivel of crash motorbike, please considerate use helmet, it save My life. Thanks!
Had exactly that bike. My experience is they did run lean off the throttle and if you didn't give it enough beans on take off it would pull away then stall - did that once and it through me up and off. My solution was to gear it down but interesting to hear about the mods on the carbs. I'm looking for a naked one now!
'01 Bandit 1200 naked rider here. When you grab a handful she's indeed a handful
Absolutely awesome
It's a great Bike💪🏻 Greetings from Germany 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This and the ZRX are absolutely beasts 🤘
@Dark Lord Fuzzybutt true
Bandit have max torque on 4500rpm.
@@michalchylinski66 yes they do
@Dark Lord Fuzzybutt that goes for every bike tho...
@Dark Lord Fuzzybutt I have two Bandits (N&S) and one ZRX. I'd say it's the other way round. The ZRX is equipped with pricier components from the start. Much better brakes to. The Bandit has an amazing pull from 2000-6500 that the ZRX doesn't have.
I personally enjoy the Bandit's lower weight and quicker steering, but it needs proper forks, rear shock and brakes in my opinion. The ZRX has a sportier seat/foot pegs and handle bars. Rear sets and a lower handle bar on the bandit wouldn't hurt either.
I had a red one. It was an awesome bike, but I sold it for money to buy a new family car. My kids were little, and I needed something reliable for my wife to drive the kids around in. At the time I had 3 bikes. The Bandit was the nicest which brought in the most money which is why I sold it. Maybe it's time to look for another one.
Отличный байк!
beautiful machine man
Yeah I have a 97 great bikes
I'm not a Suzuki guy but would love having this bike!
That bike would probably make you a Suzuki guy. I never owned Suzuki but Hondas, Kawasakis and Yamahas, but I would love to own Suzuki one day.
Just bought one a few days ago, just drove for half a mile, but love it fro the beginning. It's easy to work on too, which is a big plus. Compared to the Honda CB750, it's an absolute dream to work on.
Great review!
I have the same color bike but the 600 and absolutely love it. But looking for a 1200 bandit
Great bike great review 👌👍
Really really good bikes
Love these I want one,
i have the same but no plastic great ride
Really, nice bike
Gorilla of an engine ! Ride safe Sir !
That bike will get on up.
Nice bike😊
smooth motor
The corvette z06 of motorcycles
I have a 2001 1200s bullet proof
What model yr is that?Pretty quiet bike but that front comes up easy.That sport fairing is perfect on that & highly recommended.
Same gas came like my 2021 V-Strom 1050xt
I've owned a '98 for 16 years. Mine has 172,000 miles on it, and yes, I've rebuilt it. As a Suzuki tech, I am an expert on this model. STOCK- it makes 98 horsepower and 72 lbs of torque. The stock shock is CRAP, and needs replacing, The Mikuni carbs are excellent, but need better jetting. This bike is Clark Kent, waiting to get out of the phone booth and become Superman. Mine has JE 1216cc pistons, some light headwork, Ivan carb needles.. and make 120 hp and 83 lbs of torque ON THE DYNO, not some bullshit claim. This bike can do anything.. but you need to do proper mods.
Greeting! I need help. Just bought a '99 Bandit 1200 S. OK condition, but no way to adjust the carburetors. I didn't know what to do anymore, took the cloth and stuffed it into the air box. It works much better, but that's not it. Any advice? Greetings from Croatia.
@@brunohozmec3343 Hello Croatia! First, make sure that you are using the original air box and a new air filter (ONLY Suzuki brand!). If you still have a problem, you must make sure your carburetors are CLEAN inside. These bikes are famous for getting dirty carburetors, especially if the bike has been sitting for a long time. This will require the carb bank to be removed and the bottom float bowls removed so that the jets can be removed and carefully cleaned. 90% of the time this will fix your problems. Check your spark plugs to see if they are all EVENLY TAN color. BUY A SHOP MANUAL! Good luck!
@@888jackflash It is the original air box and the air filter is new. Carburetors are CLEAN inside. spark plugs are new.
ODGOVORI
@@brunohozmec3343 Curious how and why you "stuffed cloth into the airbox". What made you try that? If clogging-up the airbox actually DOES makes it run "better", then you are obviously way too Lean. Suggest 1) Do a compression check on all 4 cylinders. ALWAYS start with Mechanical... next Electrical (do you have SPARK at each plug? Are they all the same COLOR?) Then lastly, make sure your carburetors are cleaned and set properly. BUY... A...SHOP... MANUAL
How many miles are on this bike because I don't see it listed at your website ebay auction either?
I know this is an old post but if anyone can tell me where I can get that taller windshield?
I have exactly the same bike here in Sydney Australia and id love to fit the taller screen.
Thanks
Shorne
First! Keep it up Sr
I just bought a 1200N with 7000 miles on it - how about that!
What's the deal with the carb adjustment I need to know!?
‼💥💥💥‼💥💥💥
Greeting! I have a problem with the neutral gear indicator. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I disassembled it, cleaned the contacts, but saw that there was oil in the area where the assembly with contacts is located. Is that normal, or should there be no oil in there? I also have a problem with leaking oil on the cam cover bolts. What is the repair procedure. Thanks in advance and best regards from Croatia.
no helmet, no protective equipment. Is this hollywood :D
This guy looks like from 80's.
I take it is long gone?
My only complaint with this bike is that it’s missing 6th gear. Don’t understand why it doesn’t have one. Even my wife’s ninja 250 has one
That’s a gxer with a comfortable seat
It has only 98 hp but loads of low down torque
The wheel is not coming up in 2nd or 3rd gear... I've owned these for years. Lots of power though.
Is that a Penton ?
Yeh américain yeh la macina yeh rnsa 😁
The saddle on those bikes is very uncomfortable on long journeys.
yes they are
Great bike. Just needs a higher gear ratio or a 6th gear. Too many rpms at cruising speed.
Specs are at 95-98hp. A high end, full header, and pipe will get you just north of 105. That's about it.
95-98 on the wheel my friend!!engine power is about 120hp
@@zztopspeeder Excactly.
@@freespirittransport5139 i have the newest bandit 1250sa the last 3 year's..its amazing motorcycle 🏍️
I have a 97 owned since new . Wrong about power out put . About 98 stock yes , but I put full exhaust with a Dale Walker Stage 1 jet kit and 2” hole in the airbox . After mods it pulled 122 hp on a dyno . Later I went stage 2 and it gained a few more . Massive increase with full pipe on a gen 1 . Same time on the same dyno a first gen R1 made 127 hp , only 5 more at the peak . Bandit made more from bottom through the midrange .
@@zztopspeeder I have and 09 bandit 1250 wouldn't trade it for the world
Too bad mine doesn't look as nice but it's still fun
I kick myself everyday for selling my 1200 Bandit. Such a good bike.
I doubt if the owner did wheelies and pushed it hard like that lol
You can’t help but do wheelies on gen 1 bandit
4892
It's still for sale and he's asking 4500 bucks. That's why it's still for sale lol. 33k miles. Wishful thinking. I have a 2001 second gen for sale with 15k miles. In better condition with lower fairing also. 3200 .Mine has a 800 buck custom Corbin seat which makes it a much more comfortable bike. I'm 66 years old and getting to old to ride sport bikes.
I just picked up the same bike but a 99 with 6,500 miles for $500. What a find!
@@dustindeville9428 Yes that's a great price for a first gen. I keep changing my mind on selling mine lol. Twice I've had guys come over and at the last minute I'm like nah.. Sorry I changed my mind.
Its better with oval yoshimura. Sound like a gp bike.
Before the Euro 5 BS.
Great,reliable bike...but gsx 1400 is better in every sence..
It's not a matter of law, it's about protecting your own skull. I don't think it's forbidden to use an item that guarantees your own protection. I don't care, it's your problem whether you want to die or not, but I've seen many motorcycle accidents, and in 99% of cases the cause of death is: skull injury!
You’d expect James Hetfield to have enough money to buy something newer.
Bro lay off the steroids, it’s not healthy!
Guys shy away from these
They sell cheap
Not sure what the deal is with these
They do sell cheap and for that reason they are a real good deal
I don’t get these hot shots riding on bikes like they are on the beach under umbrella, for God’s sakes !!!! No gear, nothing. It’s like, whatever……
It is very irresponsible to ride a motorcycle without a crash helmet! You will feel this when your skull is fractured and you become a cripple, then you will regret it very much!🤔
the federal government paid the states to enact Helmut laws, when they stopped paying many states took back the laws.
